A debt relief offer is an agreement between you and a company that owns your debt. These can also be called money-saving offers, settlement offers, or discounted offers.
With a debt relief offer, your creditor agrees to forgive a portion of your debt if you repay the rest by a certain date. For example, if you owe $500 to a creditor and you agree to pay $300 by a certain date, they may agree to forgive the remaining $200.
If you repay the offer in-full and on-time, your creditor will forgive the remaining balance of your debt and you will no longer owe them any money for that account. However, if you don’t make your payments on-time the creditor is not obligated to forgive the remaining balance and may resume collection activities. Many offers include affordable monthly payment plans.
